Narrative and photographs

As most lighthouses are, this was a very easy find and a beautiful sight. We first spotted and photographed it in the morning, as we rode the mail boat to Isle au Haut for a day of hiking. At that time, it was a typical gray, misty Maine morning. By the time of our return trip in the afternoon, the sky was completely clear and blue and the lighthouse looked radiant in the sunshine.
